Chapter 24: Mutual Benefit and Win-Win

After taking care of the spiritual field, he began a new round of cultivation.

With the "Scan Enemy" term, the significance of accurate shooting was not very significant.

Training like before would only increase proficiency very slowly.

Now, his main focus was on using the "Scan Enemy" term and condensing different forms of projectiles in the maximum quantity.

By performing at the highest level in these two aspects, he could steadily increase his proficiency.

After condensing a throwing knife, he tried to shoot it towards the sky to see what the edge of the space looked like and if it would penetrate through.

However, the throwing knife shattered directly upon contact with the edge of the sky.

This happened several times in a row, and the edge of the space remained undamaged.

It seemed that the edge of this space was very solid, and with his current level, he couldn't cause any damage.

In that case, he could practice the "Golden Light Slash" with confidence.

After practicing the "Golden Light Slash," he would then move on to the "Swallow Flight Technique"...

On the other hand, in the inner sect of the Divine Will Sect, a grand elder meeting was being held in the Golden Light Temple on the Godsend Peak.

Sitting on the main seat was a middle-aged male cultivator dressed in a purple Daoist robe.

With narrow phoenix eyes, slender eyebrows, and a thin beard at the corners of his mouth, his face was stern and imposing. He was none other than the current head of the Divine Will Sect, Jiang Mo.

On the ten seats below the main seat, sat the ten grand elders of the Divine Will Sect's inner sect.

Jiang Feiyu and Li Haimeng, along with six other direct disciples, were seated in the back rows.

In the hall, Jiang Mo held a bag containing high-yield Spirit Rice seeds and said, "Feiyu and the others spent over two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones to obtain this item in Heavenly Origin City."

"This is a high-yield low-grade Spirit Rice plant, with a yield about half that of ordinary Spirit Communication Rice."

"What do you all think of this item?"

The elder in charge of agriculture asked in confusion, "Low-grade Spirit Rice plants have never had any mutations. Is this item real or fake?"

Jiang Feiyu immediately spoke up, "Elder Wang, rest assured, it is naturally real, and Heavenly Origin City is also guaranteeing it."

Elder Wang exclaimed in delight, "If it's real, then the value of this item far exceeds two hundred thousand spirit stones."

"If all the low-grade spiritual fields in the sect are planted with these Spirit Rice seeds, we can produce an additional two hundred thousand catties of Spirit Rice per year."

"In about ten years, we can recover the investment, and having so many extra cultivation resources will greatly benefit the sect's development."

Jiang Feiyu immediately took credit, "The most important thing is that these seeds were not taken by the Biling Valley. Otherwise, with their number of spiritual fields, having these Spirit Rice seeds would be like adding wings to a tiger."

"In a few decades or even a hundred years, the Biling Valley will likely dominate the cultivation world of Jin Kingdom."

After hearing this, the elders couldn't help but nod in agreement. Jiang Mo also nodded slightly, "Not bad, this can be considered a great achievement."

"The sect will compensate twice the amount of spirit stones you personally spent."

"Each person will also receive one thousand sect contribution tokens, which can be used to exchange for sect resources."

Upon hearing the sect leader's promise of such generous rewards, Jiang Feiyu and the others couldn't help but show excitement on their faces. Only Li Haimeng didn't show much change in emotions, and there was still a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Jiang Feiyu noticed the change in Li Haimeng's expression and immediately spoke up, "Father, we were able to acquire this item thanks to the spirit stones on Senior Sister Haimeng."

"Unfortunately, we used up all the spirit stones, and Senior Sister Haimeng couldn't acquire the 'Dragon's Roar Sword Manual'."

At this moment, a middle-aged female elder sitting in the third row couldn't help but ask, "Haimeng, you didn't acquire the 'Dragon's Roar Sword Manual'? Who took it? Can we buy it back?"

Jiang Mo also spoke up, "If it can be bought back, the sect can provide the funds."

"Hai Meng, my nephew, has achieved great success, and naturally we cannot let him feel disheartened."

"No matter what price we have to pay, the sect will definitely fulfill your wishes."

Li Haimeng said lightly, "The 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' was bought by Jiang Zhilan from the Bi Ling Valley."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an immediate silence among the people present.

It seems that the people from the Bi Ling Valley buying the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' is of little use, the only use is probably to exchange it for Spirit Rice seeds.

At this moment, a disciple came to report, "Reporting to the sect leader, Jiang Zhilan from the Bi Ling Valley has come and says she has an important matter to discuss with the sect leader."

The people below looked at each other, and Jiang Mo also furrowed his brows slightly.

He regretted agreeing so quickly just now.

If Jiang Zhilan wants to use the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' to exchange for Spirit Rice seeds, what should they do?

If they agree, then the Bi Ling Valley will undoubtedly gain an advantage.

Their Divine Will Sect can only win a small victory, but the Bi Ling Valley can win big.

From now on, they will probably be suppressed by the Bi Ling Valley.

But if they don't agree, the sect leader of their sect would be breaking his promise, not only damaging their reputation, but also making Li Haimeng, this talented swordsman, feel disheartened.

"Please bring her in," Jiang Mo paused for a moment, then spoke.

"Yes."

Soon, Jiang Zhilan, dressed in a green robe, led two young female cultivators and flew in on a colorful lotus.

In her hand, she held a tattered crimson manual with the words 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' written on it.

After exchanging pleasantries, Jiang Zhilan took a seat and smiled, "I believe you all already know the purpose of my visit."

"We cannot obtain these Spirit Rice seeds from the Bi Ling Valley, which is quite regrettable."

"And Li Haimeng, Fellow Daoist, participated in the auction today, presumably for this 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual'. Not being able to acquire it is naturally very regrettable."

"Why don't the Divine Will Sect give us some seeds in exchange for this 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual'? It would be a mutually beneficial and win-win situation, wouldn't it?"

Li Haimeng looked at the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' in Jiang Zhilan's hand, filled with intense desire.

With her golden attribute Heavenly Spirit Root, she had smoothly cultivated to the Core Formation Stage.

However, the realm after the Nascent Soul stage for sword cultivators does not solely depend on their spiritual root aptitude, but also on comprehending a Sword Intent during the Core Formation Stage.

A powerful Sword Intent can make a sword cultivator's cultivation progress faster and reach higher limits in the future.

The types of Sword Intent that each cultivator can comprehend also depend on their own aptitude.

The Dragon's Song Sword Intent is one of the strongest Sword Intents. To comprehend it, one must not only have the aptitude, but also the opportunity.

She was fortunate enough to have had a dream from a Dragon's Song Sword Immortal while resting on an island in the middle of the Golden Scale Lake, giving her a glimpse of the Dragon's Song Sword Intent.

However, to fully comprehend it, the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' is crucial.

For most sword cultivators, this item is not very useful. Without her unique opportunity, even if they obtained the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual', they would not be able to comprehend the Dragon's Song Sword Intent.

So even though she knew that someone would maliciously raise the price, she didn't pay too much attention to it.

Even if she couldn't win the bid this time, she could buy it at a higher price later.

But she did not expect that there would be such high-yield Spirit Rice seeds at today's auction.

And Jiang Zhilan seized this opportunity and easily won the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual' with eighty thousand spirit stones.

Now, if she wants to obtain the 'Dragon's Song Sword Manual', she can only exchange it for high-yield Spirit Rice seeds.

But this would undoubtedly harm the sect's interests and even endanger the sect's future survival.

Who would sacrifice the entire sect's interests for the sake of one person?
